Codex CLI Integration

About

The Codex skill provides a robust interface for delegating sophisticated coding tasks to Codex AI directly within your workflow. It handles deep code analysis, large-scale refactoring, and automated generation while ensuring shell safety through HEREDOC syntax. Designed for high-reliability environments, it features parallel task execution with dependency mapping, session persistence for iterative development, and built-in timeout controls to manage long-running automated processes safely.
